Bulls fan, sell me on Caleb Wilson

With Wilson projected to go #4 and this franchise having a history of selecting legendary players at that position such as Tyrus Thomas and Patrick Williams, I've done my due diligence of looking at as much discussion around Wilson as I can.

Obviously, when it comes to any prospect, there are flaws in their games, and there is a ton of good in Wilson's game; but there is also a lot of question marks, such as the ball handling, his size, the ball watching and missed assignments in his tape, as well as a lack of defensive technique in general which is being saved by his insane recovery tools (which is more so a note on his lack of movement efficiency), and 3 point shot which isn't there at all which can raise questions about his offensive upside.

Maybe I'm overthinking a few aspects due to franchise PTSD of just taking the athletic player that doesn't translate to the league, because certain stats, such as his freshman BPM indicate he's up there with the best freshman prospects of the past 20 years, and his defensive metrics are all outstanding, but I think these are all valid concerns, thoughts?
